Answer 1

As a couple people have pointed out infinite doesn’t mean everything.

Don’t think of it like a span that never ends, Think of it as a hole or a pool with infinite depth. Even if we put nicely defined borders around it so that the start and end are framed very clearly, the depth of it is still infinite.
